KJV - 1 Samuel 17:7

And the staff of his spear was like a weaver’s beam; and his spear’s head weighed six hundred shekels of iron: and one bearing a shield went before him.

His spear's staff was as thick as a loom bar, and the tip weighed as much as 600 iron coins. A person carrying a shield walked in front of him.
